Entering into and executing the agreement
Flipside collects your data for the purpose of entering into and executing the agreement. When you request a quote or fill out the contact form on the website, we process data such as your name, email address, telephone number, and any other data you provide. We need this information to contact you and make you an offer.
If you decide to accept our offer? Great! We need some data to execute the agreement. For example, we may ask for your name, address, date of birth, email, telephone number, information about physical condition, medical implications, clothing size/shoe size, weight, height, dietary preferences or food allergies, insurance, policy number, bank and payment details, and emergency contact telephone number. Flipside requests this information so that the booking can be reserved, confirmed, and completed, to keep the organization and participants informed about the trip, to send an invoice, and to ensure that the trip runs smoothly. Insurance policy numbers are processed to verify whether you have insurance.
Flipside may process so-called special personal data. These may include data about the health and medical condition of participants.
In order to ensure that your adventurous journey goes smoothly, we would like to know if you are able to make the trip, if we can meet dietary requirements, and how we can handle any medical incidents. It is not mandatory to provide information about dietary preferences or food allergies, your physical condition, medical implications, information about your insurance, etc. However, if you do not provide the necessary personal data, the service may not always be provided.
Flipside only processes special personal data with your explicit consent, or when we have another legal basis under Article 9(2) of the GDPR.
With your consent, Flipside may share information about dietary preferences or food allergies (to the extent that this has a medical or religious reason), your health, etc., with the relevant travel service providers (such as accommodation, meal providers, etc.).
Handling complaints
If you contact Flipside because you have a question, request, or complaint about Flipside or a trip, we store your message and contact details so that we can respond to your message. We process this data based on the agreement when the question, request, or complaint relates to our services. In all other situations, we process the data based on our legitimate interest in being able to respond to your message.
